Food industry uses large amounts of water for various purposes, including refrigeration and cleanliness, as raw material, as sterile water for food, transportation, cooking and dissolution auxiliary water etc. In principle the water used in the food industry can be recycled as process water and cooling or boiler feed water. As a consequence of diverse consumption, quantity and composition of wa...

BACKGROUND High salinity (1-10% w/v) of tannery wastewater makes it difficult to be treated by conventional biological treatment. Salt tolerant microbes can adapt to these saline conditions and degrade the organics in saline wastewater. RESULTS Four salt tolerant bacterial strains isolated from marine and tannery saline wastewater samples were identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus fl...

The present study investigates the applicability of the chemical analysis of wastewater to assess the use of doping substances by the general population and amateur athletes. To this end, an analytical methodology that can identify and quantify a list of 15 substances from the groups of anabolic steroids, weight loss products, and masking agents in wastewater has been developed. The method uses...

In this paper, lumped-parameter models (LPMs) were developed and utilized to simulate nitrate concentration in the groundwater of Gaza City and Jabalia Camp (GCJC) in the Gaza Coastal Aquifer (GCA) in Palestine. In the GCJC area, nitrate levels exceed the maximum contaminant level (MCL) of 10 mg/L NO3-N (45 mg/L NO3) in many wells. Elevated nitrate concentrations in the groundwater of GCJC area...

background wastewaters with high salt content disturb the metabolic function of microorganisms causing plasmolysis or activity loss in microorganisms, so the efficiency of biological treatment of saline wastewater by conventional microorganisms will decrease. objectives this study aimed to find the outbreak of disorder in the biological wastewater treatment process and how much salt leads to lo...

This work evaluates sporadic data collection on a Bluetooth Mesh network, using the OMNET++ INET simulator. The collector is roaming sink node, which could be smartphone or other portable device, carried by pedestrian, biker, an animal, drone . node connect to mesh network in hard-to-reach areas that do not have internet access and collect sensor After implementing relay extensions, Low Power, ...
